    Dodgy knees, **** attitude. I bloody hope not.

    If they want someone with dodgy knees and a **** attitude they could hire me for a lowly £1,000 pounds per week :D.

    I'm not sold on Ba. He's clearly better than what we have but his attitude and dodgy knee sound far too risky.

    I'd have him and Best and 2ndand 3rd choice strikers, would provide another option if we get a smaller striker like Gervinho/Gameiro.

    Give me your tired, your poor,
    Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free;
    The wretched refuse of your teeming shore,
    Send these, the homeless,
    Tempest-tossed to me
    I lift my lamp beside the golden door!

    I've never saw why some people rated him highly on this board. He's probably an improvement on what we have but his knees are whack. We'd probably only get 1/2 a season out of him.

    When he first joined Hoffenheim he was astounding. His partnership with Ibišević was truly prolific but both suffered injuries and are a shadow of the players they once were.

    Ba is liable to break down at any time with his damaged knees and once they go; he'll have a lengthy spell on the physio table.

    Yea i would agree with you lot but he is a decent option as cover in my opinion and no doubt we would get more out of him than we would get from Ameobi.. But if i am to be realistic here i dont think we would sign Berbatov however i reamain optamistic as always :)

    Even if he is knackered he'd be ten times better than that useless prick Shola<ok>

    I don't understand why Demba Ba refused to sign the autograph for the West Ham fan. It wouldn't have taken him very long.

    With the quality of some of the players we have been linked with I really hope that nothing hasty is done re Ba. If Gameiro, Sturridge or Berbie were to come off we would not really want him. With his dodgy knees and attitude he should be treated as a last resort to be signed only if we miss out on our primary targets. If somebody else beats us to him in the meantime I can live with that. If his club nickname isn't sicknote i'm sure it soon will be.

    Demba Ba is just his nickname. His full name is Dembabayaromulatagdagdwo Ayobennigumgbundoyo Barenonkwolashola.
